By Brooks Rainwater| urbanlibraries.org@ Written by Brooks Rainwater, President and CEO, Urban Libraries CouncilAs someone who has spent a large portion of my career leading research programs, I recognize the power of data to better inform our understanding of major issues, provide the ability to conduct more thorough analysis and thus lead to stronger decision-making.

By Brooks Rainwater| urbanlibraries.org@ Over the past few months, ULC has visited Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, to garner more support and funding for policies that strengthen and advance the essential role of public libraries.
